I’m thinking that Limited won’t be too bad. In sealed, only some will be playable. In draft, that is where problems might come up, so I am hoping for removal.
Could be that Bolas is keeping Tezzeret off-plane as an escape route should things go wrong with the Immortal Sun locking everyone in.
Also, this just reinforces my belief that this set will have Fetchlands. Unless they reprint all the Shocks in WAR or make all 36 Planeswalkers not legal in Standard, this set will need some sort of reliable mana-fixing to cope with all the multicolored Planeswalkers that will be in the format. Spare me the usual reactions, I know what "they say". I'll admit I'm wrong when I'm actually proven wrong with a full set list.
Almost didn't recognize Sorin and Arlinn. Sorin because the shading on his face took away the usual bleached whiteness I'm used to, and Arlinn because she seemed way too young in that art.
I hope Arlinn look is due to the stain glass effect. I loved the idea of a older person being werewolf, make a lot of sense for Innistrad.
Guessing she will be one-sided? They mention she can't transform off Innistrad.

I know 28 is likely Davriel Cane and I can kind of see the mask almost being similar, but its off colour and I just can't see Davriel wearing anything close to this. And I know its wishful thinking but just the shade of the arms and look of his magic gives me hope that it might be an Aetherborn walker, which could be amazing.

They have never done fetch+shocklands in any standard and they won't begin know.
From what we know, 90% of these planeswalker can be monocolored, we have nothing to presume this set will be more multicolor-focused than Ravnica (which is heavily multicolor-focused)

How i feel about competitive players and casual players in EDH: The competitive are german tourists, the casual are italian tourists, both in a italian beach. The italians asking themselves "why are the germans here?" make a legitimate question, the answer is because the beach is beautiful, no matter the country you came from. The italians wanting to ban the germans are dumb, because if the germans pay for their stay and follow the rules like everyone else, they have the right to be in the beach. Hovewer, if the germans started to ask themselves "why are the italians here?"... they would be dumb as hell.
Almost didn't recognize Sorin and Arlinn. Sorin because the shading on his face took away the usual bleached whiteness I'm used to, and Arlinn because she seemed way too young in that art.
Well, Garruk is trapped on Zendikar, as Jace transferred Ob Nixilis' binding hedron into him. Sorin being freed is more surprising, in my opinion.
EDIT: Oh, yeah, Koth isn't here either. He's probably too busy fighting phyrexians to make it.
I really hoped that Ashiok, Ob Nixiles, Angrath, Nahiri, Narset, Sorin(for obvious reassons), Huatli, Karn where note among the walkers in the set (althought we could see some of them in the teaser) because unless this "war" has no consequences then we will probably lose those characters that could very well be protagonists or antagonists on future set and in future planes (aside from Nahiri tho, think she was more limited on story development *it would be more chaleging). Thats why i wanted soo hard for red shirts planeswalkers (like some of those garuck have slain for exemple). if they wanted to cause comotion just kill 3 prime menbers of the gatewatch, better kill jace...
On those stained glass i like how the Eternals are in a few of those, also like the red dragons with Sarkhan (nice touch).
And ye, they prob will make more 5-6 mana walkers as those have less impact in limited most of the time (outside of Elspeth, Teferi, and some others)
No way #12 is Tezz. It's way more likely to be Elspeth Returned (hiding her mask with the huge silly hat), but even that is a huge stretch
I could totally see that as Elspeth. She's not an exact match, but there are enough similarities that I could see WOTC trying to obscure a story point by making the art stylistically off to hide her in plain sight. We've got big greaves, gold belt/armor at the waist, and a hidden face, like you pointed out.

Also once again I feel really bad for Angrath, dude just got back to his family and now his stuck with literally the same thing that got him trapped for years...again. Dude just cannot catch a break
I'm pissed that Garruk isn't there. Wizards completly abandoned the character wtf. Jesus is humanity a freaking plague, need more non human walkers in there.

At least if he isn't here he can't get killed by bolas and you know that if he was wotc would totally end his character...

I mean 12/36 planeswalkers listed here aren't human, and that's not counting those of races we don't know like Ashiok/Masked walker or more unique cases like Ob nixilis or Arlinn. A third isn't bad all things considered

Khans-BFZ standard's tango+fetch mana base was closest we've ever been to that in standard, and it was a huge mistake. Every deck was some variation on four-color goodstuff. Unlike what Kaladesh brought to standard, that format didn't have any ban-worthy broken interactions, but it was insanely boring.

That's like a third of those represented who aren't Humans.
Also, Garruk is, uh... his species hasn't changed just because he's sick/cursed.

Garruk is unreleated to my comments of human walkers. Tough hes very close to a demon like Ob.

It is literally his art from the ad to the book. Sorry to burst your dreams.

I have to imagine most will be utility-level PW's with only minus abilities or no ults, so they will be safe to ignore a lot of the time in limited, otherwise limited would be a massive grind fest.

Ah I see, I've only ever seen the Art of the Books cover so thanks for the info. It's a pleasant surprise to see he's getting a card this early though
I guess this is where my planeswalker collection dies, boys. It had a good run, but my wallet just wouldn't survive.
One being in every single pack of the set will maintain the average price low. I guess most of them will cost less than a buck. Your wallet should be safe then Although, they are certainly not going to be on the same level of rarity. Some may cost a bunch.

Nop Garruk can still planeswalk
At least if he isn't here he can't get killed by bolas and you know that if he was wotc would totally end his character...
